veolicity of air. theres more pressure if the pipe is smaller, or if theres more air. it puts more pressure on it, therefore causing it to move faster. its the same concept as putting your thumb over the end of a garden hose and leaving a little hole open. goes a lot faster and further than if you dont cover it huh?
Only to a certain point. Can you imagine having a half inch exhaust?

yeah which is why you want a bigger exhaust than stock, but not so much of one that it makes your exhaust sluggish
